File is over 20 KB
Use the built-in compression instead of changing the extension. The tool searches for a quality that fits the limit while keeping the required pixels.
Prepare a SSC CGL signature at 100 × 60 px and 10–20 KB using our free browser-based resizer. The tool crops, rotates, and compresses a JPG, PNG, WEBP, or HEIC photo without uploading it. The values on this page are best-known estimates marked unverified, so confirm the current requirement in the official notification before you submit your form.

SSC CGL applications are filed through the Staff Selection Commission online portal, where photo and signature files are checked before the form is accepted. Because lakhs of candidates apply in a short window, a file that fails the upload check can cost valuable time. This page uses a preset of 100 × 60 px, 10–20 KB, and JPEG. Treat it as a starting point, not an official specification. Exam notices can change dimensions, minimum size, maximum size, and even the accepted extension between cycles. The official source link is provided so you can check the current PDF before uploading anything.
A signature upload is judged on clarity as well as size. A dark, high-contrast signature on white paper compresses better than a grey photo of a page with shadows. The resizer keeps the output at exactly 100 × 60 px; it does not stretch the image to a different shape. Drag the crop so the important part of the signature sits inside the frame, then use the zoom control only if you need a tighter crop. A live preview shows what the final file will look like before compression starts.
The compression step searches for the highest JPEG quality that fits below 20 KB. If the image is still below the 10 KB minimum at the highest practical quality, the tool adds a harmless JPEG comment segment so the file reaches the minimum without changing the visible image. If the image cannot be compressed enough at the required dimensions, you will get a clear error instead of a broken download. A simple, high-contrast signature usually works best.

Rejection fixes
Use the built-in compression instead of changing the extension. The tool searches for a quality that fits the limit while keeping the required pixels.
The tool can pad a JPEG to the 10 KB minimum with a valid comment segment. Do not open and re-save the file afterwards, because some editors remove the padding.
Do not upload the phone camera original. Let this tool output exactly 100 × 60 px and verify the dimensions shown in the result card.
The tool applies EXIF orientation on import. If the source image itself was saved with the wrong rotation, rotate it in your phone gallery first and try again.
Retake it on plain white paper with even light. A high-contrast signature compresses better and looks clearer after the file is resized.
The current rule should always come from the exam authority. Open the official SSC CGL website and find the latest notification or information bulletin. Check the photo and signature instructions, including any rules not covered by this tool. Every preset on PhotoResize is marked unverified until someone confirms it against that document.
Preset status: not verified. This site is not affiliated with SSC CGL or any government body.
This page's unverified preset is 100 × 60 px, 10–20 KB, in JPEG. The official SSC CGL notification is the only final source. Check it before submitting and update the preset if the notice differs.
No. This is an independent utility and is not affiliated with SSC CGL or any government body. It does not submit your form and cannot guarantee acceptance by the portal.
No. The image is read, cropped, resized, and compressed entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. No image data is sent to this site or any third party by the tool.
Yes. JPG, PNG, WEBP, and HEIC files are accepted. Phone rotation is respected on import, and you can drag the crop with a finger. Confirm any background, lighting, or date-on-photo rules in the official notice separately.
The tool tries the full quality range and then a light blur. If the required 100 × 60 px image still cannot fit, it shows an error instead of pretending the download is valid. Try a simpler image or re-check the limit.
The suggested filename is ssc-cgl-signature.jpg. Renaming the file is normally fine, but keep the .jpg extension so the portal recognises the format.
